Mazda is recalling certain
2001-2002 Mazda Tribute vehicles
-- January 30, 2012
JANUARY
2012
-- Mazda is recalling certain
model year 2001-2002 Mazda
Tribute vehicles manufactured
from April 20, 2000, through
July 19, 2002. The brake master
cylinder reservoir cap can leak
brake fluid. If brake fluid
leaks, it could come in contact
with the antilock brake system
(abs) module wiring harness
connector. Corrosion may develop
in the electrical connector
leading melting, smoking or
possible fire. Mazda will notify
owners, and dealers will replace
the vehicle's brake master
cylinder reservoir cap and
modify the abs electrical
system, free of charge. Until
the repair has been performed,
vehicle owners should park their
vehicles outside. The safety
recall is expected to begin on
or about January 30, 2012.
